ST. Louis Wins a Hard Fought
COntRat

ST. LOUIS, July notwithstanding
the Athletics outbatted the Browns to-
day and earned both of their runs, their
defeat is solely attributed TO loose field
ing at critical stages of the game. King
was magnircently supported and his
hot shots were handled in veteran style
by Jack Boyle, who is catching more
brilliantly each succeeding game. Some
of the most marvellous plays seen on the
diamond marked the work of the cham
pions. COrt Weleh captured long high
liner, running with the ball to deep
center. Gleason stopped ahot grounder
in short left by means of which a run
was prevented and beautiful double
play made. Latham made several won
derful and hard stops, and Robinson
did great work at third. Lyons led in
the fielding and Milligan at the bat for
the visitors. The regular umpire failed
to show up and Joe Murphy. the pitcher
and sporting editor of the GlObe-DemO-
crat, Ofiiciated very acceptably. Score:

RAMSEY PITCHED WE'LL.
LOUISVILLE, KY, July 15.-RamSey
was in splendid form to-day and COM
pletely nOnplussed the Baltimores.
Only four hits and two bases on balls
were made off his delivery. The Louis
viIles also played an almost faultleSS
fielding game and raped 'Kilroy'S
curves freely. The fielding of the Wis
itorS was poor at critical points, Davis
and Fulmer making costly errors which
let in runs. Sommers played brilliant
game at second. The visitors only run
was scored OH SommerS' two-bagger,
which was followed by a single by
Davis. Score:

FOUGHT ELEVEN INNINGS.
CLEVELAND, July 15.-The eleven
inning game between the two tail-end
erS here to-day was well worth seeing.
The Nets were half hour late arriving
at the grounds and the number of in
ningS required to determine who was
victor prolonged the contest until night
fell, but not a single spectator left the
grounds until the last man was out in
the eleventh inning. A stroke of good
batting and RadfOrd S errors in the third
inning gave Cleveland five runs and in
the sixth inning Snyder scored the sixth
run, at which number Cleveland has
often stumbled before, but six proved
to be a hOodOO for the Indians this time,
and when they had made that number
by strong batting they Succumbed to
defeat after desperate struggle. The
three-baSe drives of Orr and ROSeman
were the batting features and HOtaling
distinguished himself in the field by
making marvellous One-handed scoop
of O'Brien'S long drive to right center,
which was probably the greatest field
catch of the season. Mexican scored the
winning run by Il single, a steal of see
Ond and Hotaling'S two-baSe hit. At
tendance 5000.
